Summary: The reign of Voldermort comes to an end, and with it ends the prestige and power Lucius Malfoy once had in the Wizarding World. In order to regain the respect of his fellow wizards and to make them believe that he has turned over a new leaf (which he actually hasn't) and has graciously accepted muggles and Mudbloods, Lucius asks Hermione, a Mudblood, to marry his son, Draco, a pure-blood. Obviously, they both refuse, but Lucius isn't going to give up easily. After all, he wants his status back. He still has a few tricks up his sleeve and is determined to play match-maker. What happens next is a series of events that serve only to bring Hermione and Draco closer, both literally and figuratively speaking. Read to find out how this one unseemly proposal causes absolute chaos in their lives! THIS STORY IS NOT HBP and DH COMPATIBLE! Hey all! Check out my personal info for the expected date of the next update. =)

I've been a fan of TUP for nearly four years now, and it's been killing me ever since that I never knew how Draco and Hermione's story ended. So with that, I've spent months writing this story and have tried my best to make it as faithful to yours as possible (with a few tweaks here and there).

I've started with my own version of chapter 39 and I really hope you approve, because you've inspired me so much all these years. Rest assured, whenever you decide to finish this story, I'm sure it'll still be the better than whatever I come up with. :)

Still, I hope you'll check it out and drop me a comment about what you think! Thanks! :)
